Ten Conversation Starters for Transcending Small Talk at Your High
School Reunion
1. So good to see you. Are you married? Do you think you married the wrong person?
2. You have children? Congratulations! How many? What has been your biggest parenting mistake so far?
3. Wow! Your job sounds really boring! (Insert vibrant smile.)
4. Who out of high school do you regret not hooking up with? Who do you regret hooking up with? Let’s discuss the circumstances that led to both outcomes.
5. Are you estranged from any family members? How’d that go down?
6. What issue tortures your brain at 3 o’clock in the morning when you can’t sleep?
7. Describe your level of sexual fulfillment. Would you say you are very well fucked, sort of well fucked, underfucked, or not fucked at all?
8. Have you uncovered any childhood trauma that causes you to repeatedly sabotage your romantic and/or professional life?
9. What major health challenges have you encountered over the past ten years?
10. Have you ever tried a threesome? Do you swing?
Bonus Haikus: Raising the Devil.
Ready for small talk.
My mother worries
About my dress's sweat stains.
This is exciting.
Bonus Letter from my Grade Nine Boyfriend of Three Weeks
Grade Nine Boyfriend of Three Weeks: Erica UR cool. You shouldn't do all that crap for others. Doing some stuff is okay but you shouldn't do all that stuff you do or people will depend on you too much. Keep it real. And be a little selfish.
Summer wrote to me.
At least he’s honest.

Bonus Letter from my Grade Nine Boyfriend of Three Weeks
We both had braces and on a picnic when he tried to make out with me, I
shoved a bun in his mouth. Today, this
boyfriend is exceedingly handsome and possibly rich. His letter is written inside one of the
hundreds of handmade cards I used to give to just about everyone in high school
in honour of any holiday I could think of.
I was especially good at drawing blue and purple elephants.
